Covid-19 restrictions to Club activities:  Covid 19 Sign On Sheet

1. Maximum 10 people on any activity, including the leader
2. No carpooling
3. All participants must sign on and off every activity 
4. Participants to practice good personal hygiene (eg regularly washing hands and using hand sanitiser, coughing or sneezing into elbow)
5. Participants to physically distance while taking part (keeping 1.5m from each other)
